There has been some discussion in the forums about the fact that Links sends out email as Nobody causing bounces to go to the root account.

CGI-Wrap was one mentioned solution. But I couldn't figure that out. The following appears to solve the problem. It's anything but elegant, so feedback would be appreciated.

In mailer.pm:
1. In the var declaration change the line to read:

use vars qw($VERSION $error $CRLF @ISA @EXPORT $replyto);

2. Add this line right after the Mailer::Version line:
$Mailer::replyto = 'peter@prisonsucks.com'; #added this.

3. On the line before each instance (2) of X-Mailer, add:
print $s "Reply-To: $replyto $CRLF"; #added this

4. Now here is the tricky one, and it might be all you need:
Change each instance (2) in the code of:
-oeq -t ";
to
-oeq -t -f user\@domain.com";

where user@domain.com is the address where bounces should go.

You can not, apparently, set these additional flags in links.cfg as they just get stripped out. At a minimum, I'd love to be able to set the reply to address with a variable, but this at least works....

Thoughts?
